THE LAND BILL.
CROWN TENANTS CROPPING REGULATIONS. Per Press Association. Wellington, Tuesday. Ten members of Parliament, headed by Sir William Steward, waited on the Minister of Lands, Hon. R. McNab, today with a request that the Land Bill should be amended in the direction of freeing Crown tenants from the operation of cropping regulations ia cases where they put fifty per cent, of improvements on their holdings. The Minister, in reply, said the proposals o? the Bill when in committee had been enormously modified in the direction referred to by the deputation. He took it that the deputation required the modification rather than the abolition of the I regulations. He did not know to what extent this could be done, but he would look into the regulations to see if the Government could not be milder in its requirements.
